[edit] Tunnel
[edit] As in 2021
Chittaranjan Tembhekar, Sep 16, 2021: The Times of India
IGATPURI (NASHIK): Ahead of Engineers’ Day, a workforce of 1,500 workers, led by over 150 engineers, added yet another feather in Maharashtra’s cap by completing the end-to-end connectivity of India’s widest and fourth longest tunnel at Kasara Ghat near Igatpuri on the Nashik highway in a record two years.
India's widest and the fourth-longest tunnel at Kasara Ghat near Igatpuri has finally seen the light of the day, as it was completed within two years.
Each tunnel is 8 km long and 17.5 km wide, and is a part of the 700 km-long Mumbai-Nagpur Super Communication Expressway.
Once operational, the Rs 2,745-crore twin-tunnel project, called Package 14, that connects Tarangpada village in Nashik district and Vashala village in Thane district, will cut travel time through Kasara Ghat to five minutes from the current 30-35 minutes.
The designed driving speed of the tunnel is 120km/hour and covers the gradient of 160 metre from near the hilltop close to Igatpuri to downhills near Vashala through the valley.
The Mumbai-Nagpur expressway will cut the overall travel time between the two cities from the existing 14-15 hours to a smooth 8-9 hours.
India's widest and the fourth-longest tunnel at Kasara Ghat near Igatpuri has finally seen the light of the day, as it was completed within two years.
The daylighting of the 8km twin tunnels, each 17.5m-wide, will help expedite completion of the 700km Mumbai-Nagpur Super Communication Expressway that aims to reduce travel time between the two cities to 8-9 hours from 14-15 now. Even the fastest train on the route takes 11 hours. Once operational, the Rs 2,745-crore twin-tunnel project—called Package 14 that connects Tarangpada village in Nashik district and Vashala village in Thane district—will cut travel time through Kasara Ghat to five minutes from 30-35 minutes.
